The record

Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.

A team at Oak Ridge National Laboratory 3D-printed a two-ton steel mold for manufacturing aircraft components.
The project used wire-arc additive manufacturing to create the tool for use by Boeing.
Computer simulations and temporary support structures were employed to prevent the metal from warping during the process.
This development aims to demonstrate a faster and more flexible method for creating industrial tools for aerospace production.
